How GreatVines Works
We use a tried and true sales methodology to drive the major features of the GreatVines platform. This process solves common sales challenges for our customers every day, including out of stocks, shelf position, trade promotions, order commitment, competition, and high sales rep turnover.
Planning is the first step, which moves into your activity workflow and field management. When in the field, sales reps then collect information like compliance or share of shelf and log account calls from their previously outlined objectives. This information is collected at the management level and integrated between Supplier, Distributor, Depletion Data, and your Order Entry system. A complete set of data is viewed through our analytics dashboards, and actionable insights are created to plan into your next round of goals and objectives.

Who is GreatVines?
GreatVines was created in 2009 by beverage and technology industry veterans who were looking to create the data-focused selling tools they needed to do their jobs well. Having worked for Suppliers and Distributors in various roles, we knew what it took to be successful with sales, but something was missing on the technology front. GreatVines was built as an all-in-one sales execution tool, and has helped companies progressively boost and streamline their sales processes ever since.
After being the industry leader in sales technology for over ten years, GreatVines caught the eye of Andavi Solutions. Andavi is a beverage alcohol software and data analytics technology company that acquired GreatVines in 2021 to further our joint mission to become the leading provider of software and data insights across the beverage and consumer packaged goods supply chain.
